"The magical you hears roses growing, respects your cat's opinions, realizes that eyes can kiss, recognizes angels in the supermarket, recognizes ordinary miracles like snow, peaches, spider webs, honey, and beautiful shoes, believes that a house can smile or weep, keeps a bedroom broom for night flights, drops everything for a dance or a tear, knows that behind this dream another whispers, another beckons, another remembers."

original poetry and images by diane hanna, a cape cod writer and artist. each picture measures 4" x 6" and is equipped with mounts for hanging.

says hanna, "i live in a little cape cod village, and when the four o'clocks hit on a december afternoon, i can walk to the ocean with my sister, look out toward england and imagine holly hocks and crooked gardens. i believe in wearing party dresses any day of the week and putting on my wonderglasses when the poetry is hard to find. working as a writer and artist, i tell myself there are no mistakes, only surprises."
